Here's a very cool meteor impact calculator that you can play with - http://www.purdue.edu/impactearth Plug in the variables and it will return the damage and other values. Have fun! Jared On Fri, Feb 15, 2013 at 3:37 PM, <jcarman6@q.com> wrote:

Jared, thanks for the post for video. Interesting that a car mounted camera actually caught the entire event (police car??????) and some of the amatuer video was pretty interesting, except someone must tell anyone how to hold the camera and keep your dang fingers from covering the lens lol. Still impressive glass damage. Thought it was interesting that one guy was photographing the glass damage and everyone else was just walking along like there was nothing there.

Re something was seen last night here in Utah. There was a report by a weatherman last night who showed pictures of it. It was a bright round "thing" that travelled toward and disappeared in the west. It did not leave a contrail or trail. Something was seen from Utah but it is not related to the Russia event - thanks Seth for your post.

The scientists are finally weighing in and they say it was a "shallow" entry. Sounded like it passed through the atmosphere - so what punched through the ice in the lake? Inquiring minds what to know. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
